I've just always used my fingers to put water on the sensors. I suppose either way works! I hate putting the cold strap on my chest too - it's soo cold. As far as losing weight.. I would like to lose a little bit, and tone up. I think running is definitely helping with that already.

Basically you confirmed how I have been feeling about all of it. I feel like I need to stop focusing on that stupid scale. I am going to continue to weigh foods that I tend to overeat but be a little more lax on vegt, fruits & things of that nature & no more calorie counting. My focus will be on learning my hunger cues & uping the exercise. Thanks again !! Thanks for answering my question. Basically you confirmed how I have been feeling about all of it.

I LOVE your videos, I put today's on in the background when I was getting ready and felt so inspired after hearing what you had to say =) Now to answer your questions... NO! I am NOT striving to lose more weight! I am trying to gain muscle mass and maintain my current weight, however, which means I may go up a few pounds. I don't have a scale at school, which I am grateful for - I just don't want to let another number run my life! At my lowest weight, I was absolutely miserable, looking back on it now. I had no idea then, but I see how sad my life was, a blur of numbers, obsessions, and routines. I made my friends and family worry, and I started developing problems with my knees because I was putting too much strain on them. It was truly awful and I never want to be there again. I'm happy with my current weight now, but like I said, I could gain a few pounds of muscle and probably be even happier! And as far as unhealthy behaviors, that is what 2009 is for! I am giving up calorie counting for good, and reading blogs like yours make my journey SO MUCH EASIER! Thank you so much, keep up the great work and the videos =) Hi Angela!

I have been 20 lbs heavier and 30 pounds lighter. honestly I liked the way I looked best at the lightest weight but I ha to starve myself to get there. so I am trying to get to a happy medium. I know I have a tendency to under eat and over exercise that I need to be careful of. I am 5’5′ and 132 lb.

I was counting calories and going to sleep hungry pretty much everynight. I stopped counting calories and because of that I kinda gave myself permission to eat anything and now I weigh 130 pounds. I know it is a healthy range for my height but I dont feel comfortable so my goal is to lose about 5-8 pounds. I know around 122 is my happy weight because I got to that weight without even counting or restricting and I was happy then. I just need to stop boredom eating !

This is an interesting subject and I am kind of in a period now where I have pretty much settled into this weight and I like it. I am not having difficulty maintaining this number within a reasonable window. I think you're right--that is the best gauge. Interesting post!
